Winterfest Boat Parade

For a unique experience this holiday season, take in the cool seaside breezes and holiday festivities at the Winterfest Boat Parade, Saturday, December 15th, 2018. This year’s theme is “Best of the 80s,” showcased by hundreds of decked-out yachts with music and holiday lights against the sparkling moonlit ocean. Tickets to watch the parade from the Grandstand at 7 p.m. can be purchased for $20 per person. Should you be traveling by boat, your vessel can be entered in the parade for $35.

From the Grandstand, parade-goers will be able to witness all the highlights and beauty of “the greatest show on H20,” as each vessel floats by. Keep in mind, walking and watching is just as much fun. Guests may watch the parade from anywhere along the parade staging route free of charge. The Winterfest Boat Parade sets its route along the New River before traveling east to the Intracoastal Waterway in Fort Lauderdale, then north to Lake Santa Barbara in Pompano Beach. If you plan to watch from the grandstand, reserve your tickets soon!
